If you install it from ports (you will have to unforbid the port and to edit the Mk/bsd.port.mk a bit), it will install itself in /use/local. It is not a problem by itself if your scripts use the right shebang line and/or you put /usr/local/bin before your /usr/bin. Plus, you can always create a symlink if you wish, not it will get nuked if you do installworld without NO_PERL=true in your /etc/make.conf. Alternatively, most every perl configures and builds just fine with sh Configure -des (i.e., no wasted time to answer Configure's questions). Here you'll have the same problem with /usr/bin link, though. > On Mon, 30 Jul 2001, Anton Berezin wrote: > > On Sun, Jul 29, 2001 at 10:26:32PM -0400, Marc G.
